The fact that nonlinearity and anisotropy of soil should be considered for the proper estimation of soil deformation has been recongnized for a long time. In this study, a new stiffness model which can reflect both nonlinearity and anisotropy is proposed. Nonlinearity is simulated by Ramberg-Osgood model and anisotropy is modeled with the cross-anisotropic elasticity. Analysis results with the developed model compared with those from analyses using linear isotropic model, linear anisotropic model, and nonlinear isotropic model. In the triaxial compression like condition, the effects of nonlinearity on the vertical strain are significant, but soil anisotropy does not affect the vertical strain. In 1-dimensional deformation condition, however, both nonlinearity and anisotropy of soil influence the final magnitude of the vertical strain. Also the increase of poisson's ratio magnifies the effect of anisotropy on the vertical strain in this condition.

With the increasing possibility of earthquake occurrence, seismic safety of bridges has become one of the most important social issues in Korea. In this study, a nonlinear earthquake response analysis is carried out for a real bridge by incorporating soil-structure interaction and pier nonlinearity. The material nonlinearity of the bridge pier is realized by utilizing SAP2000 whereas the soil-structure interaction is analized in time domain by adapting KIESSI. The numerical results are compared to those of the models without considering the effects.

파괴 이전 상태의 낮은 변형률 수준 하에서 정확한 지반 변형 거동 예측을 위해서는 흙의 비선형성과 이방성을 함께 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Ramberg-Osgood 식을 이용하여 흙의 비선형성을 모사하고 직교이방성을 도입하여 흙의 이방성을 구현한 새로운 모델을 개발하였다. 새롭게 개발한 비선형 이방성 모델을 여러 비교 대상 모델과 함께 간단한 경계치 문제와 원형 기초 문제에 적용하였다. 그 결과 이방성을 나타내는 탄성계수비가 체적 계수, 정지 토압계수, 그리고 유효 응력 경로에 큰 영향을 미치는 사실을 알아내었으며, 원형 기초 해석을 통해 초기 지중 응력 상태를 고려한 흙의 비선형성이 지표 침하에 큰 영향을 줌을 알 수 있었다.

The SSI(Soil-Structure Interaction) analyses are being performed for the KNGR(Korean Next Generation Reactor) design because the KNGR is developed as a standard nuclear power plant concept enveloping various soil conditions. the SASSI program which adopts the flexible volume method is used for the SSI analyses. The soil curves used in the three dimensional SSI analyses of KNGR Nuclear Island(NI) structures are based on the upper bound shear modulus curve and lower bound damping degradation on SSI response the average shear modulus curve with average damping curve was used for two soil cases. This study presents the results of the variances by using different soil nonlinearity parameters based on the paametric SSI analyses. The results include the maximum member forces(shear and axial force) at the base of the NI structures and the 5% damping Floor Response Spectra (FRS) at some representative locations at the top of the NI superstructures. They are also compared together with the enveloped SSI results for eight soil cases and fixed-base analysis for rock case by using two control motions.

In this study, the nonlinear soil structure interaction analysis method based on finite element and boundary element method is developed. In the seismic region, the nonlinearity of near field soil has to be considered for more exact reflection of soil-structure interaction effect. Thus, nonlinear finite element program coupled with boundary elements is developed for nonlinear soil-structure interaction analysis. Using the developed numerical algorithm, the nonlinear soil-structure interaction analysis is performed and responses due to dynamic forces and seismic excitation are investigated. The developed method is verified by comparing with previous studies.

Inclined piles are commonly used in civil engineering constructions where significant lateral resistance is required. Many researchers proved their positive performance on the seismic behavior of the supported structure and the piles themselves. However, most of these numerical studies were done within the framework of linear elastic or elastoplastic soil behavior, neglecting therefore the soil non-linearity at low and moderate soil strains which is questionable and could be misleading in dynamic analysis. The main objective of this study is to examine the influence of the pile inclination on the seismic performance of the soil-pile-structure system when both the linear elastic and the nonlinear soil models are employed. Based on the comparative responses, the adequacy of the soil's linear elastic behavior will be therefore evaluated. The analysis is conducted by generating a three-dimensional finite difference model, where a full interaction between the soil, structure, and inclined piles is considered. The numerical survey proved that the pile inclination can have a significant impact on the internal forces generated by seismic activity, specifically on the bending moment and shear forces. The main disadvantages of using inclined piles in this system are the bending forces at the head and pile-to-head connection. It is crucial to account for soil nonlinearity to accurately assess the seismic response of the soil-pile-structure system.

비탄성 지진해석은 구조물-지반 체계의 비선형 거동 때문에 내진설계를 위해 필요하고, 합리적인 내진설계를 위해서 지반-구조물 상호작용을 고려한 성능에 기준한 설계의 중요성도 인식되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 11개 중약진과 5개 강진 기록을 최대 가속도 0.075g, 0.15g, 0.2g와 0.3g로 조정하여 연약지반에 세워진 단자유도계에 대한 탄성과 비탄성 지진응답해석을 지반의 비선형성을 고려하여 수행하였다. 의사3차원 동적해석 프로그램을 사용하여 주파수 영역에서 지진하중을 암반에 작용시켜 구조물-지반 체계에 대한 지진응답해석을 한번에 수행하였다. 연구결과에 의하면 비선형 지반-구조물 상호작용 영향을 고려하는 것과 설계기준에 따라 내진설계를 하는 것보다는 여러 가지 지반조건을 고려하여 성능에 기준한 내진설계를 수행하는 것이 필요하다. 또한 약진에 의한 연약지반의 비선형성이 비선형 지반에 의한 지진파의 증폭 때문에 탄성과 비탄성 지진응답에 심하게 영향을 미쳤는데 특히 탄성지진응답에서 두드러졌다.

The inflow rate is of interest in the design of underground structures such as tunnels and buried pipes below the groundwater table. Soil permeability governing the inflow rate significantly affects the hydro-geological behavior of soils but is difficult to estimate due to its wide range of distribution, nonlinearity and anisotropy. Volume changes induced by stress can cause nonlinear stress-strain behavior, resulting in corresponding permeability changes. In this paper, the nonlinearity and anisotropy of permeability are investigated by conducting Rowe cell tests, and a nonlinear permeability model considering anisotropy was proposed. Model modification and parameter evaluation for field application were also addressed. Significance of nonlinear permeability was illustrated by carrying out numerical analysis of a tunnel. It is highlighted that the effect of nonlinear permeability is significant in soils of which volume change is considerable, and particularly appears in the short-term flow behavior.

기존 구조물의 내진보강을 경제적으로 수행 위해서는 내진성능을 보다 정확하게 평가하는 것이 필요하다. 우리나라 도로교의 내진성능은 "기존교량의 내진성 평가 요령"에 의해 평가되고 있으며, 이는 이를 활용할 당시 기술자의 기술수준을 고려하여 비교적 간단한 방법이 채택되었다. 최근에는 입력지진의 불확실성을 고려하여 내진성능을 확률적으로 평가하는 연구가 많이 수행되고 있다. 일반적으로 구조물은 지반의 영향을 무시하고 모델화되거나 때로는 지반을 탄성스프링으로 모델화하여 응답에 대한 지반의 영향을 고려하고 있다. 그러나 지반도 지진시 비선형특성을 나타내므로 교량의 응답특성을 보다 정확하게 평가하기 위해서는 이를 고려할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 지진세기에 따른 지반의 비선형성을 등가의 선형스프링으로 모델화하여 6경간연속교를 대상으로 하여 지진해석을 수행하였으며, 교각의 파괴 및 낙교에 대한 지진취약도의 특성변화를 확률적으로 평가하였다.

The present research intends to study the effects of the seismic soil-foundation-structure interaction (SFSI) on the dynamic response of various buildings. Two methods including direct and Cone model were studied through 3D finite element method using ABAQUS software. Cone model as an approximate method to consider the SFSI phenomenon was developed and evaluated for both high and low rise buildings. Effect of soil nonlinearity, foundation rigidity and embedment as well as friction coefficient between soil-foundation interfaces during seismic excitation are investigated. Validity and performance of both approaches are evaluated as reference graphs for Cone model and infinite boundary condition, soil nonlinearity and amplification factor for direct method. A series of calculations by DeepSoil for inverse earthquake record modification was conducted. A comparison of the two methods was carried out by root-mean-square-deviation (RMSD) tool for maximum lateral displacement and story shear forces which verifies that Cone model results have good agreement with direct method. It was concluded that Cone method is a convenient, fast and rather accurate method as an approximate way to count for soil media.
